Indexprint v4.xx with GIMP 2.8

It seems that pyexiv2 is necessary although not programmed. Reason unknown. Install is easy. Open software center and search for phyton-pyexiv2 and install it. On some distributions gtk2 and libglade should be installed. Enter in a terminal screen: sudo apt-get install python-gtk2 python-glade2 this should install the missing files.

Be very careful when installing the plugin for all users. Make the approperiate directories accessible (read/write) for all users.
